At Rocky's Hot Chicken Shack, we pay homage to "Nashville style" hot chicken and southern soul food. We prepare our unique fried chicken to order and it all starts as "Plain." From there we can add the spice from mild to XX hot (lots of folk just love it without the spice).

We take pride in being one of Asheville's locally owned, independent restaurants. We source quality and local ingredients for the classic American recipes that we make from scratch daily. Our birds are naturally raised for superior quality and flavor.

We heard about this place from a tow truck driver who we called after our car broke down. Finding this superb establishment was worth the ordeal of handling a broken down car, hell - it was even worth the 7 Hour drive down from DC.
